A resolution asking for easing of
restrictions on student football
tickets was proposed during
Wednesday's Student Senate
meeting.
Sen. Craig Freeman, Towers
representative, said the resolution
would not be a "demand" resolution,
but an "asking" one.
"The athletic department doesn't
* seem to want to help students get
tickets," he said.
Freeman said not allowing
students to pick up two tickets by
using another student's identification,
or not being allowed to obtain
guest validations are restrictions.

"Who wants to get up at 6 a.m.

He said other universities have
less restrictive policies on tickets.
Clemson, for example, allows
students with validated identification
to sit on the "hill," a large
general-admission student section
of its stadium, he said.
But at Carolina, "the administration
seems to make sure they
restrict students from getting tickets
any way they can."

The station resumed broadcasting at
